Concerns over Jobbik’s international ties and support among “sleeping agents” are leading some to suggest the party may pose a national security risk, nol.hu reports.

In January, Jobbik leader Gábor Vona stated in a speech, “masses of our sleeping agents await our victory in state administration. They are still wary of showing their support in public, but we can count on them when the time comes.”

Zoltán Balczó, Jobbik’s vice president, seconded Vona’s words, saying that “these professionals have already assured us of their affiliation, and will make their move should Jobbik form a government.” When a Népszabadság reporter asked him if these “sleeping agents” can be found in state and public administration, on the level of institutional leaders, in jurisdiction or among the police, Balczó replied that they can be found “in almost all areas.”

Government-related sources go as far as saying that Jobbik’s international relations may present a risk to Hungary’s national security, especially the links they hold with Russia. Last week, Magyar Nemzet reported that the half-covered and secret activities of Russian intelligence have intensified in Hungary in the wake of the crisis in Ukraine.

In addition to Fidesz, 4K! has also been curious about Jobbik’s Russian relations, as they demanded earlier this year that “Jobbik reveals its links to Russian energy corporations, oligarchs and the imperial endeavors of Putin,” especially because of their unequivocal support of the Paks agreement.

4K! also pointed out that while Jobbik fiercely opposes the “sell out of the country” in words, they held a conference together with representatives of the aggressively expanding Gazprom energy corporation in Hungary last fall.

Richard Field, the American businessman and philanthropist who has supported several charities and community initiatives in Hungary, believes that Jobbik is financially supported by Iran. As he writes, “One can only guess how Jobbik finds the money to maintain its presence in the media, to equip several thousand civil guardsmen, to distribute millions of copies of its free newspaper, to establish its own network of private schools, to publish their magazine called Barikád!, let alone to run notoriously anti-Semitic websites such as Kuruc.info.

“Jobbik also started to disseminate its newsletter in two million copies a couple of months ago. Rumor has it that the party has received an illegal political donation of several million euros from the Iranian government.”

Jobbik claim that they pose no risk to Hungary’s national security as their resources are “all transparent” and they “can account for the last penny of their donations.” Concerning the party’s Eastern – Russian, Iranian and Turkish – relations, Balczó told Népszabadság that these are their most “explicit” diplomatic relations. According to Balczó, it has to be acknowledged that these countries present a huge market for Hungary’s economy, and Viktor Orbán has raised Jobbik’s program from 2009 to a governmental level with the “Eastern opening.”

Why do all these neo-liberals love the neo-nazis in Ukraine but not in Hungary? Is it just their stance on Russia.

They love the Ukrainian nationalists because the neo-cons Nuland and company used them to put their man, Yatsenyuk (a neo-con and international banker), at the head of the 'government' the neo-con-led coup installed. And they hate us because the Hungarian public turfed their men out of political power in Hungary. Simple as that.

I'm going to guess this isn't true, they're trying to pull a Jew-commanded Golden Dawn-style frame up and crackdown on the powerful Jobbik.

Even if they did get money from Iran, how many Hungarian politicians are probably on the payroll of America and Israel? Better yet, how many of them are as Jobbik pointed out, ISRAELI CITIZENS IN THE HUNGARIAN GOVERNMENT .
